Man accused of sexual assault of teen in Merrimack
A 20-year-old man who had been staying with a 16-year-old and her grandparents in Merrimack was arrested Thursday and charged with aggravated felonious sexual assault, police said. Man accused of sexual assault of teen in Merrimack Keith Hanley Keith C. Hanley is accused of sexually assaulting the 16-year-old on March 30. He was arraigned Friday, and Judge Mark S. Derby ordered him held on preventive detention because his release would 'endanger the safety of the defendant or of the public,' court documents said. Hanley met the victim on Snapchat through a mutual acquaintance who told her Hanley was 'homeless and in a bad spot,' according court documents. Hanley moved in with the family about a month ago. The victim's family paid for a bus ticket for him to move from Pennsylvania, according to court documents. Hanley admitted to investigators he had sex with the victim after taking photos with her on her bed. Hanley told police the sex was consensual and the two were in a relationship. The victim told police Hanley said he wanted to make an ex-girlfriend jealous by taking a photo together on her bed. While taking photos, things escalated and the victim told Hanley to stop, but he allegedly held her down, got on top of her and continued, court documents said. The victim also told investigators that Hanley had a video on his phone of one of her friends engaging in sexual activity. She also said Hanley had told her about previously raping a 12-year-old, according to detectives. A Hillsborough County Sheriff's deputy arrested Hanley on a warrant Thursday in the presence of another 16-year-old whom he had admitted to sending pictures of his genitalia to over Snapchat. No charges have been filed in that alleged incident. The New Hampshire Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and Southern New Hampshire Special Operations Unit assisted in the arrest. Hanley is scheduled for a hearing April 17 in Merrimack district court. Anyone with information about the case can call Detective Clark Preston at 603-420-1870.
